Dipshit is better imo.

Wish ET people would come over here. Can only get into my twitter account to see I'm suspended for some unknown reason and can't do anything there. The 2024 data for 2026/2028 purposes is very interesting. Massive turnout will be the thing, imho. Don't know how, but it won't be by using celebrities.

"In many respects in good ways" is a sentiment that will bear out. They're making short term deals with the devil that will shift the landscape faster than they think. The ones inside know whose trajectories are up and whose are down already, and it's unlikely to reverse.

It will be a whole lot more than they thought they would. Trump 2.0 will be much worse than the original, like most sequels.

Randomly tried to get in to my twitter account today and I got in, but it says I'm suspended. They never told me that. Tried to deactivate, and they're like VIKI in I Robot, so I just logged out. Anyone there/here I hope to find, I'm looking, but I can't see any of my stuff, so.... #Xile

I'm blocking everyone who talks about that at all.

You can't use normie political communication to fight the infowars.

Early reports that Russian and Syrian forces have fled Hama airbase.

More consequences of Putin’s war in Ukraine - he’s overcommitting troops to try to make progress in Ukraine and leaving himself vulnerable elsewhere.

Losing in two theaters at once is pretty impressive.

Peter Thiel has been going “democracy is bad because women vote against libertarianism” for like a quarter century and people are still doing this “Silicon Valley was forced right” thing

My full expectation is this will be a trash heap for 4 years. That's bad, but not as bad as organized, systematic implementation of Project 2025 across all executive departments & forming an alliance to take down NATO & support autocratic aggression. How bad & how fast do they implode the economy?

Took a real Thanksgiving break from social media/politics for the first time since forever. It's been very helpful. Keeping up just enough by reading headlines, and it hasn't been panic-inducing so far.

I know she won’t win But jasmine should run for Senate in Texas in 26.

Keep your eye on Ms. Crockett, folks. She’s an up-and-comer.

Even if she didn't it would be amazing for TX voter enthusiasm. Too bad Cruz isn't up then instead of Cornyn.

politics hasn’t ended and hard things are hard. i am NOT saying that there are “guardrails” or that trump will be stopped by some other force. i am saying that everything can be a battle if his opponents choose to make it one.

If someone else was doing it, which is what I suspect, but it can't be good to give the gop Senate multiple ways before he's even inaugurated to tell him no. Looks like Hesgeth is going to go down also.

You call it surprising, I call it SOP.

I believe this. And damn, he's an idiot.

Many people are still processing the election results, and I completely understand! We’ll get through this, one day at a time. Don’t let the news about that orange garden gnome drive you crazy, focus on the present and take it step by step.

THIS

It's a public forum and I don't have a problem with people's opinions or positions, but what's keeping them out is trolling and hating on others. If they're incapable of functioning civilly in polite society, no one's going to adjust for that.

And if they don't have an answer (unfortunately many still don't do much beyond choir preaching) go to other org groups or just start your own with a very local, small, social event. A few people can start a group that expands and creates progress.

Ironically, the states that are going to decline the fastest and most dramatically with trump back in office will be red states.

I hid under my desk to prep for a nuclear attack & spent my childhood thinking it was normal. I AM WORRIED not gonna lie but Gen X was raised with the threat of nuclear annihilation just around the corner so it’s very hard to phase us.

Anyway WOLVERINES!

(Real ones know)

For people around my age we lived in a time when we got the news from a daily paper or nightly news once a day. Today they want our attention 24 hours a day.
We are not meant to be triggered to alertness this often!

I'm going to set my "news time" to 5pm - 5pm a day and see how much better I feel.

Opinion | Don’t Do Trump’s Work for Him on Mass Deportations How big will the Trump administration will go, and how quickly?

great piece from @daralind.bsky.social that can be taken as advice for any number of issues. don’t do their work for them.

Goodnight all. One of my seminary professors said, “You have to take the long view. Nero was the most powerful man on earth, and Paul was in chains. Now, we name our dogs Nero, and our sons, Paul.” The Big Lie is a lie. The Lord bless you and keep you!

None of it. Assuming they're preparing for this nonstop.
